Quambatook is situated 300 km north west of
Melbourne, in Victoria's prime wheat growing region. For the last thirty years it has become known Australia wide as the place to come and
witness the mighty sport of The History of Tractor Pulling in Australia is only as old as Quambatooks participation , Quambatook was only beaten by a few months by Elmore. the big difference is that Quambatook still pulling strong . The thirty years of pulling was celebrated on Easter Saturday 2006. Don't miss The Australian Tractor Pull Championships, which are held on "EVERY EASTER SATURDAY" original text by Kerry Jobling QUAMBATOOK AUSTRALIAN TRACTOR PULL CHAMPIONSHIPS EASTER SATURDAY 2009 The weather was great, crowd numbers were well up on last year. The QTPA would be very pleased with this especially with the bad times in the world economy. We saw a drop off in numbers of big tractors, with the drought and other pressures on the money side of things, some tractors were missing. The most obvious would be the Quamby, I don't think it has missed a pull since it was first built over 30 years ago. Another item missing from the day was our regular Ariel stunt show, sadly we lost one of the greatest pilots in the world of stunt flying, Pip was killed in a crash about 2 months ago, he was a regular at Quambatook . An inclusion into the program was the Tug A Sled event, it was planned to have footballers in teams of 8 attempt to pull the mini sled. There was a lack of footy teams willing to make the commitment. This was overcome with teams made up of different pulling class drivers, one team from the track workers and a ladies team. I believe they were allowed a couple of extra bodies on the rope. The Quambatook Footballers took out the $1000 prize, not sure but I think the track workers team may have been second, Pulls ranging up to 60 metres were achieved, I think the girls made it to about 50 mtrs, when I get the official results I will .put them along with the tractor results on this page. I would like to thank all who made this day possible, ranging from sponsors workers, pullers and the public who made the pilgrimage to Quambatook.
